RTTS Pitching Velocity Problem (Solved)

Re: RTTS Pitching Velocity Problem (Solved)

1 more thing. I see people talking about raising the speed of other pitchers. I want my circle change and curve to be slow. Why raise it?

Ok...Now that was weird. I raised the velocity of my other pitches. After I got a bunch of points, I raised the velocity a lot and I started getting a lot of swing throughs with my fastball in the very next game, though the speed was only topping out at 94 and occasionally around 92. 1 out away from completing my 3rd inning, my guy gets injured on the fastball.

Re: RTTS Pitching Velocity Problem (Solved)

I found something rather interesting. I started a new SP, taking running FB, SCV, and Cutter. Pitch style Roy Halladay. As I progressed, added slider, and now forkball. I first, of course, jacked my 2 FB to max speed, and brought SCV up to 80. My pitch speed on RFB and CUT remained consistent with where they were rated. 96-99 on RFB, 92-95 on CUT, even after adding pitches that dropped my velocity to C rating. Maybe its not the changeups that are screwed, but the 4SFB? Anyone else try this and see anything similar?

I had a similar thought and have been meaning to test this some, but everytime I get on, I forget too. And then as soon as I shut it off, I remember. Good work, though and I will try to remember to do some testing of my own next time I play.

I tried some testing using the rising fastball in place of the 4-seamer. Out of the gate, it was the correct speed. But as I added to it without adding to the other pitches, the velocity did not go up. I tried this with and without the changeup in my arsenal and it was the same result both times.

Re: RTTS Pitching Velocity Problem (Solved)

My Running Fastball has 81 velocity when my other two pitches (Splitter, and Curve) are way down at 40. Do I have to restart and bring the velocities up together, or can I just start bringing them up now?

Re: RTTS Pitching Velocity Problem (Solved)

Does anyone know if this has been changed? I asked this in the thread Steve made that was supposed to be a Q/A about gameplay with the Devs.

Edit:

My question from that thread

"Years ago..circa 2010. One of the game devs posted on The Show Nation that if you had a CH, CIR CH, Curveball as one of the first 3 pitches in a players arsenal that pitcher couldn't hit the max pitch speed. Example: If you had a 4sfb at #1 and CH at #2, you couldn't get your 4sfb to hit the game max of 102.

Is that still in the game? If so, what is the purpose of that function?"
